I want to start with telling that my favorite character here is Yoo Ji Sun ! like man ! He is such a good man ! that he even turned against His father for the truth. I cried a lot of this drama surprisingly! I thought this is just some romantic comedy but things got serious on the later part.
When Ji Sun told the reason why he turned against His father by saying that It's becuase He loves him, I realized that it is indeed when you love someone, you will not consent their wrong doings but you will tell them that what they do is wrong when they do wrong, I really liked that.
Too bad that Ji Sun seems has lived in blaming himself for the death of Kang Han Soo's Sister Eun Soo.
Ji Sun even turned blind on his love for the Princess/So Won for the truth and for His Nation ! He is the most remarkable Character here for me ! like I thought I was gonna hate Him but He turned to be my favorite here. Ps. I am not His fan nor I just even knew Him in this drama so there is no bias here ?
It is my first time also watching the main lead Do Hwan, and I did'n know How good his acting is ! like I like how he demonstrated his character , it was a game changer here becuase we all know and used to a main lead that is skilled in fighting and someone who is great in everything they do, but here Kang Han Soo is just an attorney who seeks for revenge, not skillful in fighting, and only a person who wants peace and justice to his country.
There is even a part where he made mistake , that's when he consulted to the Executive Minister Yoo the father of Ji Sun to save his sister Eun Soo and instead of asking for his friend's help-- The King
The King is so handsome, I've been crushing Song Geon Hee even before and always hoping for Him to be a lead one day, in this drama he is not the main lead but He had enough exposure so it is enought for me , but I realized His acting here as a King could've been better like I mean something like more expressive, more emotional, I just thought he lacks emotion specially when the servants announced that the Princess was poisoned, there should've been more angst,
but all in all it is enough anyways .. maybe I am expecting too much more than the director requires for Him
This drama has a unique story, I love it, I am always been a fan of Historical Korean Drama from my roots , so I love it everything was just worth watching, I like the emotion and the vibe on the later part when everything got serious I love the sound effects and most of all the OST !
worth my time, worth watching !
